Abstract
yingkitw/ppt-rs is a Rust CLI for generating PowerPoint presentations. This component provides a wrapper class for calling it via SystemWorker.
Usage
Create a project method for callback (this is optional)
// OnData
#DECLARE($worker : 4D.SystemWorker; $params : Object)
var $text : Text
$text:=$worker.response
$file:=$params.context
OPEN URL($file.platformPath)Instantiate cs.ppt_rs.pptcli and pass one or more task objects:
#DECLARE($params : Object)
If ($params=Null)
CALL WORKER(1; Current method name; {})
Else
var $pptcli : cs.ppt_rs.pptcli
$pptcli:=cs.ppt_rs.pptcli.new(cs.ppt_rs._pptcli_Controller)
$events:={}
$events.onResponse:=Formula(onData)
$events.onError:=Formula(ALERT("error!"))
$folder:=Folder(Temporary folder; fk platform path).folder(Generate UUID)
$folder.create()
$tasks:=[]
/*
markdown to pptx
*/
$md:="# Introduction\n- Welcome to the presentation\n- Today's agenda\n\n# Key Points\n- First important point\n- Second important point\n- Third important point\n\n# Conclusion\n- Summary of takeaways\n- Next steps"
$in:=$folder.file("slides.md")
$in.setText($md)
$out:=Folder(fk desktop folder).file("slides1.pptx")
$tasks.push(["md2ppt"; $in; $out; {data: $out; file: $md}])
/*
html to pptx
*/
$html:="\n <h1>Introduction</h1>\n <p>Welcome to the presentation</p>\n <ul>\n <li>Point one</li>\n <li>Point two</li>\n </ul>\n <h1>Data</h1>\n <table>\n <tr><th>Item</th><th>Value</th></tr>\n <tr><td>A</td><td>100</td></t"+"r>\n </table>"
$in:=$folder.file("slides.md")
$in.setText($md)
$out:=Folder(fk desktop folder).file("slides2.pptx")
$tasks.push(["html2ppt"; $in; $out; {data: $out; file: $html}])
$results:=$pptcli.execute($tasks; $events)
